No offence to the good people of Denver, but it’s a bit odd for a critics’ group to give an award for Best Original Song, but not, say, Best Cinematography. Are the Golden Globes really such a good model? Anyway, the Denver Film Critics’ Society nomination list is led by the three perceived Best Picture frontrunners: “12 Years a Slave” gets seven nods, while “American Hustle” and “Gravity” are right behind with six. Otherwise, things are mostly as you’d expect, though Woody Harrelson is an against-the-grain pick for Best Supporting Actor. Full list below; catch up with all the other regional critics’ awards at The Circuit.
